...

1.  Start by selecting the hello_world_order in JOE as shown here
   
   
   
2. Now click on the triangle to the left of the order in the Scheduler Elements pane to show the Parameter and Run Time elements.
   
   
3. Still in the Scheduler Elements pane, open the Run Time element and click on the Any Weekday element
   This will open a Weekday form as shown in the diagram below:
   
   
   
4. Now click on the Every Day button as shown in the screen shot above, which will specify that the JobScheduler is to start the order every day of the week
   These days will then be listed in the central field of the form as shown below:
   

...

1. In the Scheduler Elements pane, click on the Every Day element to set the time(s) of the days specified when the order is to run.
   For the purpose of this tutorial, it would be useful when the order would run once, starting a few minutes after the configuration of the Run Time has been completed.
   
   
2. Clicking the New Period button as shown below, to activate the Time Slot and Start Time fields (the field background color changes from grey to white) in the upper part of the form:
   
   
   
3. The most useful setting for the purpose of this tutorial is probably to only run the job once.
   Therefore, in the Single Start part of the form enter a start time, ideally around five minutes later than your current time:
   
   
4. Now click on the Apply Period button to note the start time - it will now be entered in the Periods list in the lower part of the form as shown below:
   
   
   
5. As a final step in JOE, save the run time information using the Save Configuration button at the top of JOE.

...

1. Switch back to JOC where the Start Time you have just specified in JOE should be shown in green text ("Next start: .....") as can be seen in the screen shot below.
   (You can go back to Step 3 above and alter the Start Time if you have to wait an inconvenient time for the order to start.)
   
   
   
2. As already described in the previous tutorial, the first "Hello World" job of the order will be processed almost instantaneously
   However, the second job will take a few seconds and during processing will be marked as shown in the screen shot below:
   
   
3. After processing of the order has been completed it will be added to JOC's Order History pane as shown, together with its start time of 14:40:00 and other information:
   
   
   
4. Clicking on the Order ID, will now open the Order protocol in a new browser window
   This log contains the protocols for both jobs with the "Hello World" output being listed before the task for the first job ends and the second job starts.
   The results of the Pings from the second job can be seen in the middle of the screen shot.
   Near to the foot of the screen shot is the information that the next start of the order will be on the 27th January (the next day) at the same time of 14:00.
   
   The same information will now also be shown in JOC's main window in green.
